    Outstanding Mexican food at very reasonable prices. Large serving sizes and super friendly service. Food also came out quickly after we ordered. They have a salsa bar with lots of delict salsa options. The extra spicy salsa was my favorite - extremely flavorful and not all that spicy. We ordered a variety of dishes and every one of them were A+. Only thing that was so-so were the complimentary chips - a bit too thick and not quite as yummy as most Mexican restaurants, but I'm overlooking that because everything else was so good, and the salsa bar more than made up for it.

    Service was great and so was the food. Portion sizes were on the big side which I like. My daughters shared one Chile relleno plate and they loved it. The Mexican beef plate is sooo good. We will definitely be ordering it and the Chile relleno again.

    Great casual spot for Mexican food. You can tell it’s family owned and it seems to have a lot of local clientele which is always a good sign! Everything we ordered was delicious. Friendly staff and fast service. Very reasonably priced. I would definitely visit again next time I’m in town.

    Loved this place! My favorite kind of place; simple, cozy, inviting, local, hole in the wall. Family owned. They were so nice. We called ahead to make sure they had room, and when we arrived they already had a table ready for us! The food was fantastic! It all looked amazing and I really enjoyed my dinner. I eat tacos all over DFW in Texas and all over elsewhere and I really enjoyed the tacos here. Tried the adovada pork and carne asada tacos that they recommended (I got the small tacos - I like that they offer small and regular sized tacos; small size were like the size of street tacos in mexico). I also tried the weekend special tamale with red mole. Really good! Also got to try a bite of the quesadilla - looked and tasted great, good ratio of cheese to other stuff. Would be here all the time if I lived here. Great prices too!
